Data Element: ENDANGERED AND THREATENED WILDLIFE AND PLANTS SPECIES CODES You are invited to read the definitions of terms used in this data standard. Name Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants Species Codes Description Species and population codes associated with the Service's official list of scientific and common names of all species of wildlife and plants which have been federally listed as endangered or threatened. This list also contains species and population codes of species that are listed due to similarities in appearance to endangered or threatened species. Endangered species listings are referred to as "listed entities" because a listed action is tracked separately in the Service's official Threatened and Endangered Species System (TESS) database. A species can have multiple listings due to subspecies or populations being listed separately. Therefore, a combination of the species and population codes is necessary to create a unique identifier and allow classification at the higher species level, as well as the listed entity level. Type Species Code: Alphanumeric Population Code: Alphanumeric Syntax Species Code: Variable length field currently represented as ANCC, where A represents a letter depicting the species group code, N represents a number from 0-9, and C represents either a letter or a number. The species code will not exceed a maximum of four characters in length.

USGS Guide to Federal Environmental Laws and Regulations ENDANGERED SPECIES Table of Contents Endangered Species Act of 1973 Pertinent Regulations Definitions Applicable Actions Endangered Species Act of 1973 , as amended (PL 93-205; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). Purpose The Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973 , was written to provide a means for the protection of all endangered and threatened species of life. It is comprehensive in that it also provides for the protection of the critical habitats on which these species depend on for survival. The act then takes the appropriate steps to achieve these goals. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) , and the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) , are responsible for administering the Act, with FWS covering all non-marine species and NMFS covering all marine species. Major Provisions by Section , Determination of Endangered Species and Threatened Species Provisions are given concerning the listing of endangered or threatened species by the Secretary of the Interior or the Secretary of Commerce. These listings are to be based on the "best scientific and commercial data available". Section 4(b)(3) provides that citizens may petition to modify the lists. Part (f) discusses that the Secretary shall develop and implement recovery plans for the conservation and survival of listed species unless it is found that such a plan will not promote the conservation of the species. , Interagency Cooperation Any action falling under the auspices of the ESA requires all Federal agencies to consult with the appropriate wildlife management agencies [U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS)]. It is stated that all federal agencies shall insure that their actions "are not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any

Species and ecosystems at risk in British Columbia number in the hundreds. British Columbia is Canada's most biologically diverse province. How do we balance development with our responsibility to protect this diversity? One of the first steps is to identify those species and ecosystems that have become most vulnerable. Many such species and ecosystems have been identified, through the cooperation of scientists and experts throughout the province, and each has been assigned a global and provincial rank by the

OVERVIEW Habitats Strategies Wildlife Extension Agreements Partners ... WYOMING Introduction and General Description Located in the heart of the Prairie Pothole Region, North Dakota contains wetland densities exceeding 150 wetlands per square mile in many areas. Since 1987, the North Dakota Partners for Fish and Wildlife Program has matched federal funds with donated private funds and North American Wetland Conservation Act grants to restore, create, and enhance wildlife habitat on more than 144,000 acres of private land in the state (equal to 225 square miles). The Partners Program boasts projects in all 52 counties of North Dakota, in cooperation with 2,753 farmers and ranchers, who themselves have donated over $0.6 million in direct payment and hands-on work to develop new habitat and to initiate conservation-oriented agricultural practices that benefit wildlife. Goals The goals of the North Dakota Partners Program serve to enhance wildlife populations and the Fish and Service's ability to fulfill its mission in other programs, particularly the National Wildlife Refuge System. They are: Restore and enhance wildlife habitat to meet goals and priorities of national and state-level plans Seek and maintain active partnerships with other entities to maximize cost distribution and coordinated efforts.

WILDLIFE IN CONNECTICUT ENDANGERED AND THREATENED SPECIES SERIES NORTHERN HARRIER Circus cyaneus E N D A N G E R E D E N D A N G E R E D Habitat: Open marshland and meadows. Weight: Males, 12.75-13.75 ounces; females, 13 ounces-1 pound, 4 ounces. Length: 17.5-24 inches. Wingspan: 40-54 inches. Life Expectancy: Banding results have shown several to be over 16 years of age. Food: Small mammals (mainly mice), frogs, snakes, crayfish and small birds. Status: State endangered. Identification: The slender-bodied northern harrier has a long tail and wings, yellow legs, owl-like facial discs, a conspicuous white rump patch and yellow eyes. Adult males have blue-gray upperparts and white underparts. The females are brown above and buffy below, with brown streaking down the sides of the chest and flanks. Juvenile harriers of both sexes have dark brown backs with rusty overtones and cinnamon underparts, with no streaking. Range: The northern harrier occurs throughout the United States, Canada and north to Alaska. They are also found in Europe and Asia. The species winters over parts of its nesting range, but more commonly south through Mexico, Central America, northwestern South America and the West Indies. Reproduction: Northern harriers usually return to the same area to nest. The nest is built on the ground, often near low shrubs. The species is not monogamous; a male may have two mates, but usually only one female is able to successfully produce young because the male typically favors one mate and her nestlings with food. The 4 to 9 (commonly 5) eggs are laid from March through July. The eggs are pale blue when first laid but then turn to dull white. They are usually unmarked, although some may be spotted with brown. Incubation is done by the female. It begins with the second to fourth egg and lasts for 31 to 32 days. The young are brooded by the female, with the male bringing food and passing it to the female in mid-air. Young harriers can fly about 30 to 35 days after hatching. In years when prey is abundant, harriers are more likely to raise young to the fledgling stage. Unless prey is unusually abundant, the birds do not breed until they are 2 years old.
